        In this study, the treatability of pulp and paper wastewater has been studied using a combined method (ultrafiltration and fenton) in a laboratory scale. First, the effect of membrane filtration on the removal of turbidity and COD, as well as membrane flux and membrane fouling were investigated, and then the advanced oxidation method was used to supplement the treatment and increase the removal efficiency of the pollutants. At the end of the membrane filtration operation, the removal efficiency of turbidity was 99%. Based on the results, the average COD of the filtration process with 41.8% removal efficiency was 906 mg/ l. Under optimal pressure conditions bar-1, the amount of membrane flux in the first backwash was equal to 1/99 L.m-2.h-1 which this amount reached to 1/26 L.m-2.h-1after the fourth backwash. the Fenton process removed 862/5 mg /L COD from the pretreated wastewater by UF membrane with an optimal dose of 1.5 mM for Fe +2 and 6 mM for a hydrogen peroxide at an initial pH of 3 and at a 17minute reaction time .In these conditions, the removal efficiency of COD, BOD5 and color was 95%, 90.3% and 92.1% respectively, These results shows high efficiency of the advanced oxidation process to remove contaminants in pulp and paper wastewater Manuscript profile

        Denitrification of drinking water has a research history of more than three decades in the field of water treatment and is still the subject of many research projects. The main purpose of this study is to obtain or modify methods for removing nitrate from drinking water in an economic way and force minimal adverse effects on the environment. The use of photocatalytic process for denitrification is not new, but there are still many ambiguities. In this study, the feasibility of using two different photocatalysts over the ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) substrate was discussed. This new substrate is fabricated by immobilizing the photocatalyst inside a cement matrix which acts as an active layer over the UHPC surface. Optimum long-term lifecycle and higher efficiency of this active surface is achieved without a significant drop of the photocatalyst activity near the surface. In this study, the possibility of using photocatalytic composite layers over the elements made of UHPC for applications such as water supply channels was evaluated and the challenges of using such layers on UHPC surfaces were described. According to the studies, it was found that the use of fixed cement composite bed for photocatalytic treatment has advantages over other methods of photocatalytic water treatment. Manuscript profile
